Calling all Pokémon Trainers! Nintendo’s Pokémon: Let’s Go, Road Trip! is coming to the Seattle area on Saturday, Oct. 13 as part of a nationwide tour leading up to the launch of the Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee! games for the Nintendo Switch system on Nov. 16.

The colorful pop-up tour features Pikachu- and Eevee-themed trucks, fun photo opportunities, special giveaways (while supplies last) and a chance to play the upcoming Nintendo Switch games before they launch. You can even try out the Poké Ball Plus accessory, a new controller compatible with the Nintendo Switch games that looks and feels just like a real Poké Ball – it’s even compatible with Pokémon GO!

Fans will also have a chance to meet and take pictures with the Pikachu and Eevee costumed characters. These special photo opportunities are perfect for sharing on social media.

Each stop on the tour will feature an exclusive Pokémon Snapchat filter that can only be accessed at the event locations, and Pokémon GO players may even notice a higher frequency of Pikachu and Eevee sightings near the events!

Two large colorful glass trucks, one themed for Pikachu and one themed for Eevee, that will house fans of all ages playing Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee! for Nintendo Switch.

Giant photogenic props inspired by the Pokémon: Let’s Go! games like Pokémon statues and Poké Balls.
